Are you Overwhelmed?

Courtney Martin speaking to supporters of The Community Fund for Women & Girls

I attended a talk Tuesday night hosted by a charitable organization that is near and dear to my heart (The Community Fund for Women & Girls), and the excellent speaker mentioned a word that had been on my mind – OVERWHELM. Women are responsible for a whole heck of a lot. We are the caregivers, the household managers, and everything in between. Just hearing that the vibrant young speaker was also feeling overwhelmed was comforting. Women tend to be sooooo hard on ourselves, and we could definitely use a lot more validation and support from one another.

So, I want you to know I am on your team. I know that you do the best that you can every day. And, I give you permission to simply Slow Down. If making active changes is more your thing, I’ve got you covered on that too. Check out 6 Tips for Reducing Information Overload to learn how I curbed one major source of overwhelm.
